Documentation

tmont/rethinkdb — version 0.1.0 Sep 20th 2014

puppet-rethinkdb

A Puppet module for RethinkDB.

Dependencies

Limitations

  • Only works under Ubuntu. Sorry.
  • Only supports a single instance per machine
  • It requires a user/group for the service (defaults to rethinkdb and rethinkdb)

Installation

Usage

With all the defaults:

include rethinkdb

With custom parameters:

# these are the default values for each parameter
class { 'rethinkdb':
    rethinkdb_user => 'rethinkdb'
    rethinkdb_group => 'rethinkdb',
    instance_name => 'default',
    driver_port => 28015,
    http_port => 8080,
    cluster_port => 29015,
    rethinkdb_bind => 'all', #slightly dangerous, see below
    rethinkdb_join => undef #e.g. "mymachine:29015"
}

The above will generate the following conf file (in /etc/rethinkdb/instances.d/default.conf):

# Automatically generated by puppet
runuser=rethinkdb
rungroup=rethinkdb
directory=/var/lib/rethinkdb/instances.d/default
pid-file=/var/run/rethinkdb/instances.d/default.pid
driver-port=28015
cluster-port=29015
http-port=8081

bind=all

The default for the bind parameter is probably not ideal, but it'll make everything work out of the box. You can probably change it to the machine's IP address on the LAN (e.g. 10.0.*.* or 192.168.*.*) for something less open. Your mileage may vary.

See the RethinkDB docs for more detail on configuration options.

What actually happens

  • Installs rethinkdb via its repo
  • Creates a user/group for the rethinkdb service
  • Generates a conf file and puts it into /etc/rethinkdb/instances.d
  • Runs rethinkdb create -d /var/lib/rethinkdb/instances.d, which is the default directory
  • Ensures the init.d service will run on startup
